About Fondo Esperanza

Fondo Esperanza is the leading microfinance institution in Chile. We support the economic and social development of enterprises in vulnerable sectors through the provision of loans and entrepreneurial education to people living below the poverty line. In 20 years, we have supported more than 540,000 entrepreneurs. We belong to the BBVA Microfinance Foundation, recognized by the OECD as the first foundation in contribution to development in Latin America and the first in the world in contribution to development for gender equality; and to Hogar de Cristo, an institution with which we share the commitment to ensure that people from vulnerable sectors of the country have better living conditions.
